Dell EMC Specialist – Systems Administrator, Elastic Cloud Storage — Question 1

There is a request to add new disks to an existing VM residing on a VxRail vSAN that you manage. One disk is 250 GB. The VM is using the vSAN default storage policy.
How many vSAN objects will be created?

Answer options

• A. 2
• B. 3
• C. 6
• D. 9

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because, according to the vSAN default storage policy, each disk requires multiple replicas and components to ensure redundancy and availability. For a 250 GB disk, vSAN typically creates multiple objects to meet these requirements, resulting in a total of 9 objects. The other options do not account for the full replication and components needed for a single disk under the storage policy.
